Health+ Taurine Capsules, 60 Pieces
The Health+ Taurine capsules contain 1000 mg of taurine per capsule and can have some advantages as a dietary supplement. Taurine is a non-essential amino acid for adults, more precisely an aminoethanesulfonic acid, which is mainly formed when cysteine and methionine (both containing sulfur) are broken down. In 1824 it was extracted and isolated from an ox bile for the first time, which is why it was given the name taurine, which was derived from the Greek name tauros (= bull). An intake through food or a supplement is not absolutely necessary for adults, since the adult body taurine can synthesize up to an amount of about 130mg daily. However, taurine capsules are still recommended in certain situations.
Many athletes use taurine as a supplement to exercise to better hydrate their cells. The amino acid aids the movement of sodium and potassium across cell membranes, resulting in improved cell hydration. In addition, taurine plays an important role in the GABA metabolism and can dock on the glycine receptors in order to interact with them. This is why taurine capsules are also popular as a dietary supplement before going to bed. In addition, taurine supplementation has a positive effect on the nervous system and the cardiovascular system. Taurine is an important factor in the production of testosterone. 2-3 capsules are taken with sufficient fluid before a meal or physical activity to provide the body with additional taurine.
